  • The caliber of American made knives is arguably the most renowned in the entire world. The commitment to fair labor practices, exacting machining standards, and penchant for personal product support speak to the dedication of American knife makers to craft their pocket knives with a keen focus on quality over quantity, rather than relying on cheaper, faster outsourced international labor. In this hands on guide, we’re covering some of the best USA-made EDC knives on the planet.

      I know, I have noticed that they kinda slip under the radar. Pro-Tech is what I consider to put out the BEST SIDE OPENING AUTOMATICS in the world right now. To prove how unbelievable one of their small offerings the SBR (Short Barrelled Rockeye) in S-35VN, I took it out on one of my bush craft fires where I relax and take in the scenery. I decided you know what....I want to see how well these side opening autos really hold up. Keep in mind, the SBR has a blade that is only 2.65 inches long. I proceeded to baton the knife through a 2.5 to 3 inch sapling tree. I got completely through the tree with no extra blade movement, no problems locking up or deploying, and the most amazing part. I was still able to shave my arm hair with it. I have to admit I professionally sharpen knives so I put a little taller bevel on it and took it up to 3k grit. They truly are great knives if I am able to whack the blade and spine of the handle of a knife that is not really made for that at all dozens and dozens of times and it comes out smiling, it was quite impressive to me.

    Microtech Socom Elite (not the Bravo) is another great one. Also, there is a large amount of customization potential for the Hinderers. Now I feel obligated to add a Buck to my collection.

    I rather buy a Chinese one, I'm not even kidding. Literally the same quality if not better, but definitely more value. I won't name brands but do your own research. This isn't 1960 any more and some of these prices are silly.

      Fit and finish of Chinese knives are on par or better than US made at the same price points but there is hard to find a Chinese manufacturer that can consistently do proper heat treating across their product line. It’s really luck of the draw even with some of better OEMs like Kizer. Kunwu does a proper job with their steels AFAIK

    • @EDCandLace
      @EDCandLace Месяц назад +1

      Kunwu is doing hood work with heat treats but aside from them I won't touch china done up powder steels.
